The stand-alone house sits on a large meadow that forms the upper edge of a vineyard. Entrance, hall and courtyard follow one after another and set the main axis, which points to the vineyard and the lake. The symmetrical plan starts from that axis.
The plot is 24 by 20 metres. Every side of the volume has a cut in it, a response to what lies on that side. The biggest one faces the vineyard and Lake Zurich.
